  • I have to wonder who's job it is to sharpen the leading edge of that bridge, as in some of those shots it seems that the roof's gets peeled back or torn off much more efficiently?

    We are lucky / unlucky to have TWO of these (well marked) low clearance train bridges in our little town and they too collect their share of victims.

    Had to put one of our dogs down Friday, so thank you for that smile.

    I hope those rentals paid for the extra insurance.

    This guy had all the rental insurance he could get and he said it doesn't cover front cap,roof,and bottom.

  • Clearly that bridge is on a major traffic route. They either have to build a higher bridge or have special height warning devices. A simple sign is not enough.

    reminds me of driving my truck through the Smoky Mtn Natl Park heading for Gatlinburg TN one time. Came up on a mangled up fridge roof cover laying on the side of the curve just past a low overhang rock. I stopped and throwed it in the back of the truck. Farther down the park road I see another metal something laying on the side of the road - picked that up as well. It was a bat wing antenna... Then I come up on a RV trailer pulled off on a pull-out area. The dude was outside looking up at his RV roof haha...

    I pulled in behind him and gathered up the pieces - Asked him if he was looking for these haha... Felt bad he had done some damage to his RV Trailer...

    true story...

  • So funny..thanks for the link
    I love the fifth wheels who don't even notice the clean shave of their roof :)
  • That bridge has it's own website. 11'8"
    It's been posted all over the internet for years.
